Getting started re-loading

Yeah, I see seconds on the manufacturer's site. I just thought a large retail store site would be a good place to see and compare a variety of products side be side.

Administrator:
Check out http://www.midwayusa.com - they have about everything, their prices are great, and best of all shipping is reasonable and fast.

JimP:
Shipping used to be FREE  :'(  ............

OK, anyone that knows me will unequivocally tell you one thing about me, when I get an idea in my head and decide to do it, I want to do it NOW! 

So, I ended up getting home from work and turning right around to head to Omaha to look at reloading stuff. Man, the $500 Dillon set up was COOL  :o but there is no way I could justify spending that much money (even if I had it to spend, which I don't) on something that I knew absolutely nothing about yet. Sooo, after much deliberation and pacing back and forth, I ended up bringing home the Lee Anniversary kit for just under 70 bucks. I picked up some free literature and also bought a copy of the Second Edition of "Modern Reloading" by Richard Lee. I found a thread on the Glock Talk forums for reloading newbies that contained links to all sorts of information (I highly suggest anyone interested in getting started go to Glock Talk and check out the reloading forum) so I guess I will spend this weekend edumacatin' myself on the basics of reloading. I haven't purchased any bullets or powder yet, but I did get a set of 30-06 dies, so hopefully I can use all the brass Nick used up last week and at least get the casings prepped. This sounds fun, I'm excited.

JimP:
If you have any questions, ask! I've used all that stuff.

helpful hint #1: Use a 3/8 electric drill to trim, debur, chamfer, and clean rifle cases, all in one operation..........
